"Since time immemorial, man has been sticking things up his bottom. When your average hardworking prehistoric fellow had killed his mammoth, skinned it for warmth, roasted its flanks and supped on its flesh, what did he do next? He eased himself down on the blunt end of the tusk and whacked off."
class=parafirst>Vicky and Charlie, video reviewers par excellence for the Erotic Review, turn their attentions to the sex toy, that staple of the erotic imagination, for this addition to ER Books' justly famous series of Illustrated Books.
"This book can only nibble at the tip of this new universe of plugs, rings, balls, beads, sleeves, tubes, electrodes, clips, clamps, pumps, ticklers, tweakers, dildos, dolls, prods, probes, stirrups, wands and gerbil-shaped vibrators. We cannot begin to attempt an encyclopaedic directory. Diderot himself would have wept at the scope of such a task. But then he would have cheered himself up by sticking a mains-operated toad up his bum."
Are any sex toys dangerous and if so why? Which are the best value for money? With a careful eye for quality and reliability, Dee McDonald has scoured the market, shopped around and test driven these toys to bring you the best she can find.
Annie Blinkhorn, the gorgeous, diminutive deputy editor of The Erotic Review, explores the moist world of oral sex, leaving no nook or cranny unexplored. Although she looks as though butter would always stay firm in her mouth, reading her little book soon changes that impression. Her text scorches along at a raunchy pace, peppered with brash Northern wit and some of the filthiest, funniest observations on this sexual activity we've ever encountered.
Erotic historian Oliver Maitland discusses the female pudendum and why it has been airbrushed out of art history. He examines taste, anatomy and finally, mythology: 'the vagina dentata... an unattainable item on the shopping list of dominatrixes'.
An elegant, but delicously dirty, book that investigates every nook and cranny of the pulsating underbelly of that proud, upstanding era (including VR herself), pornography, adultery, brothels, 'self-pollution' as well as sex between classes, between races - even occasionally between the sheets.
